New MolAS model improves protein-ligand docking algorithm selection

Researchers have developed MolAS, a new model designed to improve the selection of protein-ligand docking algorithms. MolAS utilizes pretrained protein and ligand embeddings to predict the performance of different docking methods, achieving significant improvements over single-best solvers. The model's effectiveness is tied to the stability of solver rankings within specific workflows, suggesting its utility as both a fixed-pipeline selector and a diagnostic tool for assessing docking problem well-posedness.

    Molecular Embedding-Based Algorithm Selection in Protein-Ligand Docking

    arXiv:2512.02328v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Selecting an effective docking algorithm is highly context-dependent, and no single method performs reliably across structural, chemical, and protocol regimes. MolAS is a lightweight algorithm-selection model that predicts…
